France on fire
When they see immigrant thugs looting and trashing cities, social media commentators sometimes mock the rioters as young professionals, doctors, architects, etc. It is intended as an irony-laden riposte to fatuous left-wing arguments that diversity makes the West stronger and mass immigration from alien cultures brings talent that grows the economy.
